Reviews

An exceptionally impressive collection of provocative essays, all of which apply Merleau-Ponty's ideas to new fields and frontiers. This book will probably be of most use and interest to those who are already familiar with Merleau-Ponty's work, as well as those who are interested in the political implications which are expressed in or entailed by phenomenological concepts and techniques.
